Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>A police constable out on bail on charges of attempted murder, kidnapping, and rape has been arrested again \u2013 this time for allegedly assaulting his girlfriend.<\/p>\n

The officer, stationed at Mogwase police station in the North West, was arrested on Thursday and is set to appear in the Mogwase Magistrate’s Court on Monday.<\/p>\n

He was arrested and then released in January by the Independent Police Investigative Directorate (IPID). Provincial police spokesperson, Brigadier Sabata Mokgwabone, said the constable allegedly<\/p>\n

knocked down a woman with a car, then kidnapped and allegedly raped her at Welgevaal village, near Mogwase. Mokgwabone added: North West provincial commissioner, Lieutenant-General Sello Kwena, said gender-based violence and<\/p>\n

any form of abuse cannot be tolerated, whether perpetrated by the public or police. Kwena expressed his “disapproval of the member’s conduct”, which he said was<\/p>\n

“unacceptable and unethical”.<\/p>\n

“No special treatment will be given to the member to ensure that justice is served,” Kwena added.<\/p>\n
